Cohen (1988) has proposed that the strength of relationship, r, can be interpreted by its value.

From the value of equal to or more than 0.70 obtained in the strength of relationship, it could
be interpreted that the relationship has a much larger than typical strength. It is then followed
by larger or larger than typical strength of relationship, where the value of r would be around
0.50. For medium or typical strength of relationship, the value of r would be around 0.30. Lastly,
with the value of approximately 0.10, the strength of the relationship is defined as small or
smaller than typical value. With that, we can see that for this study, most of the relationship
found are of medium strength. The probabilities of all the three relationships identified are less
than 0.01, where the null hypothesis of the study can be rejected. In other words, it is 99%
confident that the relationships identified in this study are of weak relationship strength.
